I would be interested to know how to reproduce this crash.  Do you have
a good way to reproduce this?

Well, I'm not necessarily objecting, but I'm a bit puzzled.  I would've
thought that, if nExp < 0 is true, -nExp > 0 is automatically true.
Anyway, if you have a code snippet that can make this code to segfault,
that would help me understand this better.

Thanks,

Kohei
